Airbus has welcomed Collins Aerospace as a new member of the Digital Alliance for Aviation. Collins joins the existing Digital Alliance members including Airbus, Delta TechOps, GE Aerospace and Liebherr.
The Digital Alliance focuses on the joint development of digital solutions for airline operations powered by the Airbus Skywise platform, which supports structured data management for maintenance and repair operations.
Collins Aerospace brings additional expertise for predictive maintenance solutions for a wide range of components and aircraft types, covering areas such as avionics, aircraft interiors, enhanced communication and navigation systems and innovative solutions for flight landing systems and gears. The company complements the predictive value proposition of the Digital Alliance by providing significant analytics for Airbus and non-Airbus fleets. This includes air conditioning supplemental cooling, electrical power distribution centre, hydraulic power or engine bleed air supply.
"Within the Digital Alliance, it is all about joining forces with key industry players, providing their strong expertise in system and component design and repair to best serve our customers. Our aim is to provide reliable predictive maintenance solutions to ensure stable and cost-effective operations," said Claude Houver, VP Innovation and Digital Solution at Airbus.
"In this fifth year of the Digital Alliance, and welcoming the fifth member, Collins Aerospace, we look forward to working on reinforcing our existing product portfolio," Houver added. "We are also assessing expanding our services for non-Airbus aircraft for customers with mixed fleets to further accelerate the deployment of predictive maintenance in the industry, starting with health-monitoring solutions."
